Deep Space Evolution: Clans

Chapter 7 Plants
A new day, a new environment.

On this day, under the leadership of Yuan, the reptile fish group, which had experienced a long journey on the bottom of the sea, came to a brand new environment.

Regarding the new environment, Yuan's first direct feeling is warmth.

Very immediate warmth, while the sea level is much closer.

The temperature of the sea water is obviously on the rise as the Yuan progresses.

Such comfortable temperatures have also caused huge changes in the marine environment here.

This is no longer a white sand environment.

At least green appears.

Seeing the same color as the tree in the tribe's memory, Yuan curiously stuck his head out and took a bite.

"It doesn't taste the same as blood relatives, but it's edible."

It's a crunchy texture with a hint of bitterness.

Compared with blood relatives, it feels refreshing.

It was digested very quickly, and the most important thing was that Yuan noticed that his evolutionary quality had actually increased a little.

Although there are not many, probably less than one percent of blood relatives, such a discovery undoubtedly gives Yuan a new understanding of the entire marine environment——

Those who can eat are blood relatives.

Thinking of this, Yuan couldn't help but look at the reptile fish blood relatives behind him.

Although the guys crawling at the front are not as tall as Yuan, they are already half a head bigger than the original blood relatives.

Among these blood relatives, the ability of some to swim in water has almost caught up with the original.

And some, although they started evolving together, they are not exactly on the same path of evolution.

These blood relatives have only evolved their own limb strength. In terms of swimming, they don't seem to want to evolve at all.

Due to the evolution of limbs, the strength of these blood relatives has also increased by leaps and bounds.

The blood relative who kicked Yuan awake before was of this type with evolved limbs.

Yuan looked at these blood relatives and motioned for them to eat these small green "trees" like him.

"Blood relatives, eat."

At this moment, the blood relative who kicked Yuan last night came forward, lowered his head and gently touched Yuan's forelimbs, and said this.

"Blood relatives, algae, not tasty."

"Algae?"

Yuan looked at the light green and realized that this thing was not a tree, but an algae.

However, Yuan didn't care what the guy said wasn't delicious, and instead bit into a piece of seaweed and put it in front of him.

"Blood relatives, eat."

This blood relative raised his head and looked at Yuan, his eyes seemed a little confused.

But under Yuan's gaze and Yuan's previous behavior of eating seaweed, the obedience engraved in his genes made him lower his head.

Then he ate the seaweed placed by Yuan in one bite.

It's obvious that he really doesn't like eating seaweed.

With Yuan taking the lead and the blood relative's demonstration, the reptile fish blood relatives who passed by the seaweed growing area would take the initiative to stick out their heads and take a bite of the seaweed.

It is indeed not delicious.

However, none of the blood relatives vomited up.

As the crawling progresses, the green on the seabed becomes more and more intense.

From the seaweed that originally clung to the seabed, seaweed appeared floating in the seawater.

It was during the conversation with that blood relative that Yuan learned about seaweed.

Of course, the blood relative would inevitably have a close encounter with the unpalatable seaweed.

Yuan knew that they could eat these plants.

plant.

This word unexpectedly existed in Yuan's mind.

Although he did not know the specific names of seaweed and seaweed, Yuan knew that these were plants.

Plants are edible, and those who are edible are blood relatives.

However, the plants don’t seem to move?
Yuan curiously fiddled with the tall seaweed in front of him.

No matter how hard he tried, the seaweed was rooted on the seabed and the bottom would not move.

Only when Yuan exerts force will the seaweed break, or be uprooted by him.

When the seaweed is disconnected from the bottom, it will not walk like Yuan. It will only float in the seawater and move with the waves of the seawater.

"Is this a plant?"

Yuan had an initial concept of plants in his mind.

As the group moves, the seawater becomes warmer and warmer, and there are more and more plants in the seawater.Likewise, Yuan saw a whole new species.

This is a creature that lives in seaweed. It is not big, not even the size of Yuan's head.

But if you think about it, it's actually very normal.

After all, the seaweed here is not huge at all. The tallest seaweed is less than 1 meter. How can the creatures living here have such a large size.

This little creature is still a fish.

A fish that looks harmless to humans and animals, Yuan named it the grass carp.

Because when it encounters danger, the grass carp's body surface will suddenly erect spikes.

Yuan was caught off guard and was stabbed.

However, the spikes did not break through Yuan's scales.

The evolved scales are harder than before. Although the spikes of the grass carp are very strong and sharp, they are helpless against Yuan's scales.

Under the guidance of the concept that great strength can produce miracles, Yuan raised his forelimbs and knocked out the grass carp with a slap.

However, even if the spiny grass carp is in a comatose state, the spikes on his body will still not retract.

But after playing with the grass carp for a period of time, he discovered that the spikes of the grass carp could be pulled down along the direction of the fish's body.

This discovery allowed Yuan to take his first bite of grass carp.

And after that, the entire body of the grass carp was eaten cleanly.

How to describe it?
Different from the taste of firewood, which is the blood relative of reptile fish, and different from the tender taste of winged fish, the taste of grass carp is mainly elastic.

Yuan thought, maybe it had something to do with the spikes of the grass carp popping up.

That kind of speed really requires such muscles to be able to do it.

The taste of reptile fish relatives ranks No. 1 on the unpalatable list.

In Yuan's opinion, this is even more unpalatable than plants.

Yuan, who has tasted the other flavors, is now starting to get picky.

However, compared to the winged fish that cannot catch up, the grass carp that is quite troublesome to eat, and the plants that can only provide a little bit of evolutionary essence.

Reptile fish blood relatives are still the most convenient and quick source of evolutionary elements.

Therefore, it is conceivable that in the following period, the main source of evolutionary qualities required for meta-evolution will still be blood relatives in one's own group.

The blood relatives of the ethnic group no longer have a certain resistance to Yuan's eating as they did at the beginning.

Now there are even those weak blood relatives who come forward to let Yuan eat them.

In this regard, Yuan will not have any excuse.

Eating these blood relatives does not have any psychological burden on Yuan.

Because in the ethnic group, these weak, injured, and aging blood relatives should have been eaten.

They are also willing to be eaten.

However, Yuan didn't understand why they would walk in front of him hoping to be eaten by him.

Before this, these blood relatives will be directly divided up by other blood relatives on the spot.

And those blood relatives seemed to have acquiesced, and the only one who could target these eliminated blood relatives was Yuan.

At least the first bite is definitely meta.

Yuan actually sees the changes in the ethnic group.

From the very beginning, he was aimlessly searching for land. Finally, as he became stronger and stronger, the tribe began to follow his footsteps.

Wherever Yuan goes, the clan will follow.

The direction of the yuan is the direction of the ethnic group.

In response to this, a brand new vocabulary appeared in Yuan's mind.

leader.

He is the leader of the reptile fish clan.

Thinking of this, Yuan turned around, jumped up from the sea bed, and looked at his tribe.

The blood relatives in the tribe raised their heads and looked at him.

Yuan thinks this feels really good.

"Blood relatives, move forward!"

Yuan turned around and swam forward.

Behind him, blood relatives who had learned to swim jumped up from the seabed one after another.

And those that couldn't swim began to jump up on the seabed.

There is no doubt that the speed of progress of the reptile fish community is increasing rapidly.
